@CyclismasEditor @SSbike @Digger_forum Sort of bolsters LA's "Walsh taking a global victory lap."
Out on a date with Mr. & Mrs. Dawg.Benotti69 said:Is Walsh taking Sky embed too far by having dinner with Froome in Kenya?

I hope Lemmy recovers quickly from the operation tothehog said:it's called "white line fever".

I heard he said "hello" to Froome. That's a clear proof he is on the bandwagon.Benotti69 said:Is Walsh taking Sky embed too far by having dinner with Froome in Kenya?
Sorry, he is having dinner with Familgia Froome. Bit more than a hello, hey?EnacheV said:I heard he said "hello" to Froome. That's a clear proof he is on the bandwagon.
Also i heard Daniel Benson is calling Horner in the morning. This can mean a lot of things also.
Dinner? Walsh can get that anytime anywhere. Its time to see the big five, fully expensed:Benotti69 said:Sorry, he is having dinner with Familgia Froome. Bit more than a hello, hey?![]()
I think the view is that he has become “too close” to the subject that he is writing objectively about. Probably the type of thing Lance would have done in the past. Invite a journalist on a ride to explain how to write his articles better.The Hitch said:I don't understand what Shane Stokes and Lesli Cohen are saying.
Book is coming out soon, right in time for the christmas shopping. Amazing coincidence.red_flanders said:Walsh has moved from being on the bandwagon to driving it. Full stop.

Not sure conflict is the right word to use. I feel that there can’t possibly be objective when he is dinning and such with his subjects.
To be honest he’s not the SEC or an auditor. He is a journalist. Many of which do similar. Write lovely articles when being paid to do just that… write lovely articles.
They are saying Walsh is conflicted. That Walsh won't be able separate himself for his friendship with the Dawgs and his job.The Hitch said:So what were they saying?
Germany's ex-Bundespresident has been charged by the state of fraud and bribability on the sole basis that a business friend of his bought him some beers at the Oktoberfest.thehog said:They are saying Walsh is conflicted. That Walsh won't be able separate himself for his friendship with the Dawgs and his job.
Probably not a big deal to cycling readers. But those in finance, government etc. it's a huge deal.
One only needs to see what happened at NOTW and with Murdoch publications in the Australian elections to have concerns.
Barking. Wrong tree.the sceptic said:Book is coming out soon, right in time for the christmas shopping. Amazing coincidence.
Yes. Siemens had the same issues. All of the major US banks, Enron etc. all played the same game.sniper said:Germany's ex-Bundespresident has been charged by the state of fraud and bribability on the sole basis that a business friend of his bought him some beers at the Oktoberfest.
so yes, walsh having diner with the dawg is a serious red flag (assuming the Dawg paid the bill).
Presumably when the book is published it'll have "with David Walsh" right on the cover, or at the very least the front page...that being the usual.thehog said:Yes. Siemens had the same issues. All of the major US banks, Enron etc. all played the same game.
These days regulation (law) forces you to "declare" gifts.
But here you have two employees of News Corp. dining out for dinner. Hard to define a conflict.
As such Walsh should declare the fact. Selling advertising as journalism is illegal.
